UNSPSC 85591526: Bypass esophagus to duodenum with autologous tissue substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass esophagus to duodenum with autologous tissue substitute, open approach. This surgical intervention or procedure is listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 as code 0D15079

UNSPSC 85591526, Bypass esophagus to duodenum with autologous tissue substitute, open approach, is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, but the six recent opportunities posted under this code span occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, surgical benefit carve-outs for municipal employees, independent medical evaluation services for pension disability determinations, specialty medical services for detained youth, and temporary health professional staffing—none of which align with the procedural definition. State and local procurement offices have tagged these opportunities with this code in error or as a catch-all medical-services classifier; the code does not reflect actual buying patterns for the narrowly defined surgical intervention it nominally represents.

Activity is present across multiple jurisdictions and issuing bodies—including the City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department, Collier County Board of Commissioners, and Santa Clara County Health System—but none of the solicitations target the specific surgical procedure or related implant, graft, or procedural supply that the code's definition contemplates. Pursue this code only if your firm provides general medical staffing, benefits administration, or occupational health services; do not assume that the code reliably signals demand for esophageal bypass procedures or related surgical supplies.
